Monterra Lakes #2, Cochrane

Twisted Rock Terrascape & Design, Inc.

Another great acreage project that was a blank slate for us to design and build to suit our client. A large concrete patio was a must and our client wanted nice curved lines to match the natural setting. To do so, however, required a very tall retaining wall that we built out of concrete using footings below frost to ensure a lifetime of worry free stability. We extended the patio out past the upper deck to a natural wood-burning fire pit area using rundle rock. A perfect tranquil setting!!

White Cheshire Herb Garden

Adapt Environment

Following a visit to Sissinghurst, the client asked for a white theme Arts and Crafts herb garden for the courtyard of their barn conversion. An antique pot and reclaimed brick was sourced from a reclamation yard and arranged in formal pattern. Highly scented white Roses, herbs and Lavender were added, as planting.

Get Inspired by Arts and Crafts Gardens on Houzz

A lot of the time when you get home from a long day at work, all you want to do is wind down. Where better to do this than in your very own arts and crafts garden at home? If you do it right, a great garden design can send you right into holiday mode. But where to start? There’s so many styles to choose from when it comes to garden design. Whether you want to create a tropical, modern, contemporary, beach style or country garden - or something else entirely - the large garden image gallery on Houzz has got you covered. Get inspired and collect your ideas to narrow down your desired garden style and features.

How to Create an Arts and Crafts Garden for Your Home

Depending on which style you’re going for, be sure to know what makes an arts and crafts garden and if it’s appropriate for your climate. You may want to consider adding a deck or other landscaping features, but the plants you choose will mostly dictate your style and what kind of ongoing maintenance is required. Don’t worry if your backyard isn’t very spacious - there are many plants that can thrive even in a small space and allow you to turn your space into a little paradise of your own, regardless of size.

Decide which plants to use

The greenery you choose is critical to your look. For example, if you’re trying to create a tropical garden palm trees and bamboo are your go-to options. Other popular options are golden cane palm trees and fern for ground cover. From there you can add some colour with bright flowers like frangipani, hibiscus or bromeliads. All these are actually quite hardy plants, so once established, your tropical garden is actually quite easy to maintain. Use this structure and apply it to your style. Research which plants you need to set your base for an arts and crafts garden and go from there.

Add some decor

If the plants don’t quite do it for you yet, or if you want to add some extra wow-factor, consider adding some extra features. Even if you can’t accommodate a swimming pool, hot tub or pond, you could look at smaller water features. Simple rocks can also have a great effect, while statues and gnomes will add some extra character. Don’t forget to add some furniture so you have a nice place to sit and enjoy your garden!

If that is the case for you, consider consulting a professional to help you with your arts and crafts garden design.
